Default Suspension, wheels, sway bars, and bushings installed!

Suspension = Tein CS
Wheels = JP Scaras 19"
Sway Bars = TRD (front and rear)
Bushings = Daizen steering rack and front control arms, upper and lower)

....oh yeah, and Supra rear end.

Absolutely freaking love it!!!!

Nice wheels, but I'm biased.

It's the RMM kit, no mix and match at this point. The body needs some help...I hope to get the car into a body shop to get the body kit all refit and the whole car repainted.

It should all be coming together soon.

Thanks for the comps guys!

The bushings are effing incredible in combination with the TRD sways and the Tein CS's!!! The car feels a lot more like the BMW I had a couple of years back. I didn't install them myself, but the mechanic said that they went in quite easily.

Yup bent wheels...both left wheels were bent this past weekend. I haven't had the wheels on for five days and already bent them. I'll have them fixed in the next couple of weeks though.

I'm thinking of getting them refinished as well.



Let me know what you guys think.
